Maximise ROI
Efficient operation and upkeep of a cement plant is no small
responsibility. Yet, as every owner knows, it’s one of many
needed to ensure plant success. Outsourcing these tasks
allows greater focus on other aspects of your business.
Leveraging FLSmidth’s expertise maximises your returns
– short and long term.
We offer the industry’s most comprehensive portfolio of
support services, all designed to optimise your operations.
For investors looking to profit from cement, but not used to
the massive technical and operational challenges a plant
presents, FLSmidth’s Operation & Maintenance (O&M)
service is the ideal solution. Even experienced cement
producers can gain a competitive advantage by outsourcing
some or all O&M duties to FLSmidth.

We take the risks - You get the benefits
The basic principle of O&M is that you contract us to operate
and maintain your plant. In doing so, we guarantee your
output levels for an agreed price per tonne. Our fee is per-
formance based. All you have to do is account for certain
basic provisions and let us take responsibility for plant per-
formance. In this way, you can convert your variable costs to
fixed costs per tonne. You will only be charged according to
our performance. Our performance guarantees will enable
you to make educated decisions and plan ahead, particularly
with regard to related aspects of the business.
Total peace of mind
FLSmidth’s comprehensive DBO (Design Build Operate)
approach lets us support our partners throughout the
process of establishing a new cement plant and beyond.
Best-practice routines ensure projects are carried out on time
and within budget, with a clear allocation of responsibility
and risk. Why not continue to benefit from our expertise
through FLSmidth’s operation and maintenance services?
Since FLSmidth’s founding in 1882, we have gathered an
unsurpassed understanding of cement processes and
machinery. And as the company that designed, built and
commissioned your plant, nobody understands your specific
operations better than we do. Handing O&M over to
FLSmidth also gives you access to our global support
network. This means you get an unrivalled level of service
and priority access to FLSmidth’s original spare parts and
know-how.
Ultimately an O&M contract from FLSmidth gives you total
peace of mind that your interests are being taken care of by
a competent and reliable partner.

Division of Responsibility
In order to work effectively with outsourcing, it is important
to clearly define expectations and responsibilities up front.
We take no financial stake or holdings in the plants we
operate. Our contribution and scope of responsibility
includes the efficient running and professional upkeep of
a plant. By limiting our role to operation and maintenance,
we also ensure there is no conflict of interest between our
customers and ourselves.
Plant owners retain control of fundamental supply issues
relating to, for example, power, water, fuel and raw materi-
als. In addition, all capital investments in machinery and prop-
erty are the responsibility of the plant owner. However, we
help in defining specifications and making recommendations
where and when necessary. We also take full responsibility

CSR-The Triple Win
Our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) policy focuses on
cooperation with company stakeholders and maintaining
high standards of business ethics, human resources and
protecting the environment.
We strive to make a positive contribution to local communi-
ties through cooperation with universities and technical
schools to raise local skill levels. Where skill levels are already
at international standards, we offer job opportunities for
local talent at our O&M sites. The employees benefit from
our principle of providing ongoing learning and internal
advancement opportunities. New jobs and educational
opportunities contribute to the general development of the
local society. We believe that this CSR profile enables us to
create value for all our stakeholders.

responsibility to ensure the profitable
running and professional upkeep of

Investment
Despite not being the plant owner, we do nevertheless
make significant investments in developing your plant.
For example, hiring talented managers, establishing best-
practice policies and updating essential technology all have
long-term benefits for your organisation. These fundamentals
long outlive the length of any O&M contract, and you will
continue to profit from working with FLSmidth long after
we have left your plant.
A strong principle
FLSmidth is committed not only to operating your plant
as efficiently as possible, but to maintaining it in premium
condition. Our maintenance concept is simple: solve
problems before they happen.
The key to this preventative approach is to take a long-term
view. That is why we never try to push output beyond
responsible limits for short-term gain. We perform regular
scheduled checks on vital equipment, ensure staff are well
trained to spot and remedy potential problems early on. All
this reduces costly unscheduled stoppages to an absolute
minimum.
Better off
In fact, when you sign an O&M contract with FLSmidth, you
can be sure of getting your plant back in optimal condition.
We use our proprietary “autopilot” control and optimisation
system to fine-tune processes. We incorporate a Computer-
ised Maintenance Management System (CMMS) into all the
plants we operate. This not only raises uptime, but helps us
diagnose problems accurately and find solutions quickly.
Finally, our advanced process simulators provide state-of-the-
art staff training and raise skill levels.
We are constantly looking to improve processes and
technology. From simple improvements based on experi-
ence and insight to more radical upgrades we keep your
plant in perfect working order. Our aim is to maximise your
assets for the long term by optimising all operations and
maintenance.
Three possible models: DBO, DUO or DDO
As well as the Design Build Operate (DBO) concept, we
offer two other models:

We would like to introduce the Design Upgrade Operate
(DUO) model. If you own an older plant, and you would like
to produce at a higher production level, we come in, design
a tailor-made upgrade for your existing plant and operate &
maintain your plant.
Another possibility now available is the Due Diligence
Operate (DDO) model. If you have an older plant, and want
to maximise its performance, we come in audit your plant,
and then operate & maintain it.
An O&M contract with FLSmidth is the perfect outsourcing
option for quality-conscious plant owners. All around, whether
in financial terms, operational efficiency or plant condition, you
are better off with FLSmidth – your One Source for everything
it takes to design, build and operate profitable plants.
